Englewood STEM High School is a modern, high-quality neighborhood high school campus. The state-of-the-art school features flexible breakout learning spaces and specialty classrooms, including Career Technical Education and Allied Heath labs that will strengthen a partnership with Kennedy King College by providing students the opportunity to earn college credentials. An art suite is situated off the monumental stair, and classroom spaces open into a gallery through overhead garage doors, thus highlighting the artistic discipline and creating opportunity to display student work. Football, baseball/softball, tennis, and track & field athletic amenities form the “Athletics Quad,” situated to direct access and offer views to the academic building. The new high school serves the surrounding community; spaces such as the health center, athletic amenities, and cafeteria are designed to be accessible to the public during off-hours. Englewood STEM serves as a portal for students in the Englewood community to “Reach Beyond.”
